TV vet to sign books at town new market

Yorkshire TV vet Julian Norton will be attending the second Artisan Market in Wetherby on Sunday July 11.

Julian, who has a practice in Wetherby - Sandbeck Vets - will be signing copies of his latest book All Creatures.

The Artisan Market, in partnership with Wetherby Town Council, replaced the traditional farmers market and brought 40 traders, selling a wide variety of hand made and artisan produced goods.

The event attracted a host of visitors from the local community, who visited the new market and enjoy the beautiful weather.

The Market was officially opened by Mayor of Wetherby Coun Neil O’Byrne, who said: “It was an absolute pleasure for me to open the new and exciting Wetherby Artisan Market and welcome so many new stallholders. 

“I doubt many more stalls could have fitted into the Market Place, which was packed with customers, many of whom thanked Wetherby Town Council for organising this vibrant monthly market. 

“I am certain that this venture with our friends at Little Bird Made will be another resounding success and attract many more visitors to our beautiful town.”

He shares the heart-warming and life-affirming characteristics of animal happiness.
